Growing Instructions
Soak seeds for 8–12 hours before planting to encourage faster germination. Sow seeds on a natural fiber growing mat designed for microgreens or a light growing medium, spreading seeds evenly for dense growth. Keep the surface consistently moist using gentle misting without overwatering. Place the tray in a warm location until germination, then provide light after the seedlings emerge. Germination usually begins within 2–5 days, and the microgreens are ready to harvest within 10–14 days.
Light Requirements
Requires bright indirect light or indoor grow lights after germination for strong shoots and healthy green color.
Uses
Enjoy fresh in salads, sandwiches, breakfast dishes, as a garnish, and in green smoothies. They add a crisp texture and fresh pea flavor to many meals.
